Comparison review
The Google Pixel has a score of 80.2, which is slightly better than the Huawei Mate 10's 78.9 overall score. Even though the Google Pixel is older and just a little bit thicker than Huawei Mate 10, it's body is still notably lighter. The Huawei Mate 10 has a much better looking screen than Google Pixel, because it has a little higher screen pixel density, a larger screen and a higher 1440 x 2560px resolution.
The Huawei Mate 10 has a little faster processor than Google Pixel, and although they both have a 4 GB RAM, the Huawei Mate 10 also has a larger number of cores (and also faster). The Google Pixel counts with just a bit better camera than Huawei Mate 10, because although it has a smaller aperture which is not recommended for low-light photography and video, and they both have the same 30 fps video frame rates and the same video quality, the Google Pixel also counts with a more mega-pixels camera and a much bigger sensor.
The Huawei Mate 10 counts with a slightly better memory capacity for apps and games than Google Pixel, because although it has only 64 GB internal memory, it also counts with a SD card slot that supports a maximum of 256 GB. The Huawei Mate 10 has a much longer battery life than Google Pixel, because it has a 4000mAh battery size.
Although Google Pixel is a better device, it costs more money than Huawei Mate 10, and it doesn't have such a good quality/price relation as Huawei Mate 10. If you want to save a few dollars, you can get Huawei Mate 10, and give up a couple features, but you will get the most with your savings.
